Kākāpō ranger diaries

Read the diaries of the kākāpō rangers and get as close as you can to being there to help save this incredible parrot. Kākāpō recovery rangers live on small offshore islands, but in a hut and with internet access.

Despite being tired and hungry when they come in from a day in the bush, they will also be frequently inspired to share their experiences with you.
